The Embezzler,s Return.

MARION, Jan. 21.-Friday at II o'clock
Officer Van BERN, of our city, arrived here
with Charles Parker in custody, whom he
arrested at York, Pa. on charge of embez-
element. He was brought here on requisi-
ton from Governor Gray. He was formerly
from Pennsylvania, but came here few
years ago, and engaged in the grocery bust
ness under the name Of Charles Parker. He
soon became financially embarrassed and
transferred his stock to other parties, and
became travelling salesman for A. c. Trent
man & Co., of Fort Wayne, md, but soon
retired from that position and returned here,
where he in the meantime had married into
one OF the best families of this city. After
remaining here few days he left the coun-
try, when it was discovered that he
had appropriated a considerable amount Of
money belonging TO others to his own use,
and that his name was not Charles Parker,
bat John s. Gelliton; hence the pursuit and
capture. He is now in Jail here to await a
preliminary trial before Justice Wallace on
the Goth of January

Knocked out In Elght Rounds.

New YORK, Jan. PA Terrific prize-fight
took place here tonight. The mill was for a
subscription purse OF $500. at the call OF
time both men sprang TO the center of the
ring. Wier led but was short, and Farrell
got in a good left-hander between Wier's
eyes, receiving a wicked highlander in
return. Terrific fighting finished the round.
Round Secend-Weir opened with two
straight leads that left their marks on Far
rel's face. Again a sluaging match ensued.
At the end of this Weir was partly thrown
and partly slipped down. A knock down
was claimed, but not allowed.
In the third round the fighting was simply
terrific. At the end of the round Weir s
nose was found to be broken.
Round fourth-Both men went in to do or
die. Weir's eyes seemed to be almost closed
from Farrells left-hsnd work; but Weir re-
taliated by knocking Farrell down by ter
rible right-hand oss-counter. Farrell fin
ished the round very weak.
In the fifth and sixth rounds Weir, though
terribly punished, took a decided stand.
He walked around Farrell like a cooper
around a barrel, though Farrell again made
a determined fight.
Round Seventh-Farrell came up very
weak and Weir met him twice with his left
that sent him staggering across the ring.
Farrell seemed TO be unable to inflict
any further punishment upon Weir and his
blows lacked steam. Weir went at him with
left and right-handers, each one of which
seemed 10 be the last that Farrell could en-
tCre. He almost fell into his seconds hands
at the call of time. FarrelIs seconds were
unable to bring him to the scratch for the
eighth round.

New Jersey Legislature.

TRENTON, n. j., Jan. 24.-The Senate met
at o'clock tonight, but Immediately ad-
journed till tomorrow. The RoPubliCan
Senators have not yet decided whether to
organize tomorrow or not, but there is q
tendency In that direction.
The Assembly met tonight, Among the
new bills was one directed against Pinkerton
detectives. 1t prohibits Sheriffs, Mayors,
etc, from appointing, in case of a riot or
other disturbance, as special policemen any

person acting in defiance Of this law, and
without leave of the local authority, is liable
to three years imprisonment or a fine of
So, 900 or both. Another bill was introduced
providing that no person belonging to the
organization commonly known as THE
Pinkerton men" or the "Pinkerton Patrol'
shall exercise in this State any power as
Deputy Sheriff, policeman or constable; also,
that nobody but resident of the State shall
so act. a penalty of So, 900 fine or five years
imprisonment is fixed for violation of the law.

Brilliant Society Event.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 24.-The annual charity
ball at the Academy of Music tonight was q
most brilliant society event. The leading
social circles of this city were represented,
together with delegations from New York,
Washington and Philadelphia. The academy
was decorated in a costly and elaborate man
ner, the orlole colors, yellow and black, pre-
dominated. The Presidential party arrived
shortly after 10 o'clock, and fifteen minutes
later the opening promenade was formed in
the north cafe. President Cleveland led
with Mrs. John A. Hambleton, and was fol-
lowed by Robert Garrett and Mrs. Cleve-
land. There were also present Miss Lamar,
Miss Villas, Miss Endicott, Miss Manning and
hundreds CT others, until the spacious dane
ing floor was crowded. The scene was the
most brilliant ever witnessed in Baltimore,
as the toilets were most elaborate and the
display of diamonds exceptionally fine.
Mrs. Cleveland wore a white sleeveless cos
tune, cut lew back and front, the same in
which she was married. The Presidential
party took supper in the concert hall shortly
after midnight, and returned to Washington

SHOALS, Jan. 21.-Quite tremor of excite
ment prevailed in the courtroom this even
ing, when the jury in the case of Stephen
Moles, charged with the murder of Jacob
Jones, on the 23d Of August last, returned a
verdict of guilty of manslaughter, and SEN
fenced him for twenty-one years in the
State prison. The crime for which he was
convicted was a heinous and brutal one. 1t
grew out of an old-time feud existing be.
tween Jacob Jones, the murdered man, and
the defendants brother. They had net on
several previous occasions for the express
purpose of a pugilistic encounter, but
never before could their wishes be gratifed.
On this fatal morning the two brothers were
hunting, and by chance met Jones, when a
few hot words were exchanged. Stephen
Moles shot Jones in the lower limbs, thereby
disabling him from selfdefeDse. Then he
and his brother mashed his head into pulp,
leaving the blood-bespattered rocks near by
the only witness to the horrible crime. An
inquest was held and sufficient evidence pro-
duced to make case against the elder
brother. With much hard pleading and
considerable excitement prevailing, the case
was given to the jury at o'clock this after
noon, and at o'clock tonight the Jury re.
turned a verdict of guilty of granddaughter
and sentence as above stated.

Harvard College.

BosToN, jan. 24.-The annual report of the
president and treasurer of Harvard College
will be given to the pubic tomorrow. The
presidents report opens with a tribute OF
praise to the late Professor Gurney, and to
others connected with the university who
died during last year. He calls attention to
the changes in the statutes of the university
by which all religious services are placed
upon voluntary footing This was attended
with the creation Of Board of College
Preachers, six in number. to whom the
chapel services and the pastoral care Of the
students were committed.
Passing to the new system OF requirements
of admission, which has been in use for the
past two years, President Eliot argues that it
viii have more beneficial effect upon the
preparatory schools, enabling them TO
widen the scope of their teaching. Besides
increasing the number and variety OF schools
which fit boys for college, the new require
ments will, it is hoped, have some influence
to improve the methods of teaching history
and SCIENCE In all schools. The previous
efforts of the faculty to get science intro
duced into the preparatory schools have had
but little success, because the former re-
quirements could not be met by committing
small manuals to memory. The new require
ments are also expected to assist in bringing
down the average age OF admission TO
eighteen or thereabout5. At present about
two .fifths of the freshmen are over
nineteen at entTance-a condition of
things which the faculty views with
concern. The old fashioned system OF
minute marking and percentages has been
done away with, and in place OF it has been
adopted a classification of the students in
each course of study in five groups, the low
est of which includes those who have failed
on the course. IL is hoped that this group
ing system win aito-d sufficient criteria for
judicious award of scholarships, honorable
mention and the grades Of bachelors degrees,
while it diminishes the competition for
marks and the importance attached by stu
dents to college rank IN comparison with
the remoter objects oil faithful work.
The president speaks highly of the work
OF the committee on athletic sports last
year. but the attitude of the college toward
inter collegiate football games is left an
open question.
In the graduate department changes have
been made which will render the courses
more easily acce esssible, particularly to grad
uatos of other institutions. The president
calls attention to the need of more scholar

of the technical schools and their needs;

Governor Bob Taylor took place. Ia few
moments, however, Buchanan, of Ruther-
ford County, changed from Marks to Bate,
and was followed by @. A. Miller. Then the
rush came, and Bate was within one vote of
nomination. Ex-Governor Marks withdrew
in brilliant speech, and Bate received the
vote of every member present amid scenes of
the widest confusion. The Senator-elect
made the finest speech OF his life. The Sc
lection is probably the most satisfactory to
the people at large that could have been
made.
General w. B. Bate was born and reared
in Sumner County, Tennessee. He received
a common school education, and when quits
young became clerk on steamboat. At
the breaking out of the Mexican war he
enlisted and made a brilliant military record,
being with the army that entered the City
of Mexico. On his return he entered the
Lebanon law school, graduating with dis
tinction. In 1854 he was elected Attorney
General of this district and afterward to the
General ASSEMBLY. On the outbreak of the
war he enlisted as private in the Second
Tennessee and was rapidly promoted. He
participated in the battle of Bull Run. The
battle of Shiloh was especially fatal to his
family, he being dangerously wounded and
five OF bis immediate family Law on the field
killed or wounded. In 1862 he was made a
Brigadier-General. At the battle of Chicka-
mauga he was again wounded, having three
horses shot from under him. Although un-
able to walk without a crutch he remained
with his regiment, and soon afterward was
made a MGjor-General. General Bate has
been member of the National Democratic
Committee for the past twelve years. He is

cases and will take no part in their decision.
The argument viii probably not begin be-
fore 3 O'Clock, as the court has not yet I'm
isbed rendering decisions, and there is
another case to be disposed of before the
telephone cases can be taken up.
After a long colloquy between the Chief
Justice and counsel for the respective COM
panies, with regard to the time and order of
argument, it was decided thatMr. Maynadier
should open for the defense in the Dolbear
case. Mr. Peckham in the Molecular case and
Mr.. Lysander Hill in the Drawbaugh case.
Mr. Storrow will then open the argument
for the Bell Telephone Company.
court, in view of the importance of these
cases, had decided to postpone the usual
February recess one week, and allow counsel
two weeks time for this argument-that is,
from to-day until week from next Friday.
At a quarter past o'clock Mr.. ]. Il. May
nader opened the argument in the Dolbear
case. The principal subjects Of controversy
in the lower courts in all the cases brought
here for decision,,were the meaning aud con-
struction of the Bell patent; the question
what a speaking telephone is; the compari-
son of the invention set forth in the Bell pat
ent with the previous state OF the art, and
particularly with what is known as the Refs
telephone, and the meaning and scope of Mr..
Bells claims on which the issue of infringe
ment turns. The litigation has given rise to
records containing thirty five or forty vol
umes of evidence and arguments. There
are twenty volumes of records now before
this court, containing nearly $1,000 printed
pages, beside voluminOus briefs.

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Nearly 5000 of DIR.
McGlynn's parishioners thronged about the
entrances to st. Stephens Church tonight,
where il had been announced that the CON-
mittee of the parishioners would make re-
port to the full body. Sixty policemen were
in attendance as had been requested by
Father Donnelly. At O'Clock Father Dom
nelly, hanked on either side by policeman,
appeared inside the locked and barred iron
gate to the church basement. Addressing
the people, he said: "You had better 60
home. The church is closed and no meeting
will be held tonight" Then he retired and
was not seen again. Soon after the commit
tee came down the street, but were told by
the police captain that Father Donnelly had
forbidden any meeting. The chairman then
mounted the steps and announced that fact
to the crowd, telling them to 90 peacefully
home, which was done

VIENNA, Jan. 4-Although the Bulgarian

ment continue unabated. Iu the event of
mobilization, three great armies will be
formed. each containing no less than 250,O0O
men. Commanders for these corps have al
ready been designated. II is believed that
these gigantic preparations have been under
taken less for fear Of war with Russia con-
cerning Bulgaria than with a view to the
contingency of war between France and Ger
many, which would cause additional Eastern
complication.
1t is reported that the powers have re-
solved to revive the conference at CONSTANT
nople to settle the Bulgarian question.
An order prohibiting the expectation OF
horses is daily expected.
1t is estimated that the Landsturm would
supply 100000 additional men to the army.
The regulation appended to the decree rela-
| tive to the Landsturm directs that if the men
| are summoned before uniforms are received
| they must wear insignia consisting of yellow
and black arm-bands and bearing the num-
| Der of the regiment to which they belong.
| 1t is further ordered that each man must
| provide himself with a metal case in which
